About this map

The East Fork Chippewa River winds through this Ashland County landscape, which by the early 1980s was defined by a mix of forestry and rural infrastructure. The small settlement of Peeksville sits centrally, while further south, the St Cecelia Cem and a nearby Water Tower mark the outskirts of Butternut. The land is characterized by numerous glacial features, including Camp Four Lake, Slim Lake, and Bullhead Lake.

Evidence of the area's industrial and transportation history is visible in the Old Railroad Grade and several gravel pits. Aviation is represented by the Glidden Airport in the northern portion of the quadrangle. Local civic life is anchored by the Townhall located near School Cross Rd, while a network of named roads like Mail Route Rd and Otto Ernest Road provides access to the surrounding timberlands and wetlands.
